As far as sticks go, Blanca subscribes to the motto: The bigger the better! With considerable effort she dragged this huge branch out of the water (see photo in first comment) and up onto the dune. Quite an impressive feat ... but she forgot one thing: Her mom cannot throw that stick for her!! LOL!

This pretty little pug was at our grandson's soccer game. The ball was almost bigger than he was! He was having a great time, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

ANCIENT CATHEDRALS
How many lives passed
within these cold stormy walls
Saints, heroes, murderers, poor people
Everybody looking for something
Now the clamor of the centuries is over
I will await here silently
among this gathering of rustling shadows
that someone tells me about your broken lives
In the middle of that thick scrub
between erased names
faded photographs
where all ambitions end
behind corroded stone writings

Because there was a hunger in me to see everything and do everything. I wanted to be everyone I saw. I wasn't enough for me. Can you understand that?

Hello there! I hope all is well my friends! Happy Humpday! I am here featuring Ayla. with this new bedroom set called Loft Bedroom which is new to the Shiny Shabby Event! This set is really gorgeous. I love black/darker spaces so this set was right up my alley today. I also have some of my favorite fur friends from JIAN. The Forest Cat collection is one of my favorites from the store and they add personality to any space! Most of the items in here are from Ayla. I have all of the credits on the blog so feel free to have a look! Thank you dearly for the support my friends and I wish all of you a blessed day! xoxo <3333 Ebony

A little to the right of this is a brothel. So, yes, you get your bang one way or the other.
A male Crimson Sunbird (Aethopyga siparaja) was scanning for the small insects in an early morning between bushes and network of branches. I was chasing this agile beauty for long and finally got it for a moment in a relatively open area. The beauty of the red colour and the two purple dazzling colour stripes in neck made that noticeable from a distance. Finally managed it in poor light. Pics was taken from Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary in West Bengal, India.
With great focus and absolutely no practical means of success, the Black-crowned Night-Heron attempts an osprey-style takedown of a large fish. Unfortunately, he brings enthusiasm to a job that traditionally requires talons.
Cattle Egret / Kuhreiher (Bubulcus ibis)
I couldn't help but smile when I watched this ambitious Cattle Egret struggle to balance across my eye-line with an enormous stick!

This little guitar is dreaming of one day playing at The Ryman... I'd settle for just a chance to visit!
For Looking Close...on Friday!'s #keychain theme
(Honestly, until two months ago, I'd never heard of The Ryman, though apparently it's fairly well known in musical circles, mainly for being the home of the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and hosting many country music legends. As a family, we're huge country music fans. My husband was lucky enough to visit Nashville for work earlier this year. This was present for our guitar-playing youngest son. )

The beaver markings were fresh, so I'm sure our presence annoyed them. Maybe next year we'll have a better view of the pond.
Cranberry Pond, South Hiram, Maine
A grey heron attempting to swallow a large (1 kg plus) perch at Burton Mere Wetlands RSPB reserve. I'm pretty sure the fish was dead, but am less sure as to whether the heron killed it or found it.
I watched it for a while during which it made several attempts to fit in the fish, none of which were successful.
Last night I went to see A Complete Unknown, the new Bob Dylan Biopic. I'd heard wonderful things about this movie and it did not disappoint. I adored it. The sherpa and I were the only ones in the cinema which meant that I could sing very loudly and applaud all the songs. I felt like part of his audience. The opening scene is one where Bob Dylan goes to meet his hero Woody Guthrie who lay very sick in a New Jersey hospital. He plays him a song called "Song to Woody", written in 1962. The last couplet in the following verse really stood out to me.
Hey, hey Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
'Bout a funny ol' world that's a-comin' along
Seems sick and it's hungry, it's tired and it's torn
It looks like it's a-dyin' and it's hardly been born
I leaned across to the Sherpa and remarked how fitting those last two lines feel for our times. In fact it was a thought that surfaced often while listening to Dylan’s songs throughout the movie. Which brings me back to this image in Thailand, and, really, the entire trip.
The simplicity of island life stood in contrast to the complexities and horrors of the outside world. Life there may not be easy, (it looked really hard to me!) but everyone has a role—the women, the men, even the children—and there’s a quiet dignity in that. They don’t have much, living in humble wooden shelters, often pieced together from large bits of driftwood. Yet, there’s a warmth that comes from their sense of community.
Most people on the island know one another, and life is built on connection and mutual support. They help each other, woven together by shared purpose rather than individual ambition. I think that’s one of the most profound things we’ve lost in many parts of the world, the shift from community to self-interest, from collective well-being to personal gain.
Nothing could be more evident than what is happening in the USA.
Anyway, do you self a favour and see the movie and forgive my rambling!
